More Sewing

Yesterday was more productive than I thought it would be, I managed to get to the store in the morning, make a cake (from the box) with homemade frosting, and stuffed shells for my son's birthday.  I also managed to squeeze in some sewing, I finished piecing the little quilt top, here is a picture of what is now looks like. 
I tucked the fabric that I cut for the binding along the edges to see how it will look when it's complete.  I'm going to select a fat quarter for the backing and make the sandwich later today, then I will add it to the stack of had stitching near my chair since I'm going to hand quilt this one like I did with my "Fall Little Quilt".  I also received the first month of the Civil War Chronicles in the mail yesterday......but I'll tease you and save it for another post.  Those of you that love reproduction fabrics and quilts are going to love this one! 

Gotta get moving so I can hopefully play again later........don't worry next week I will have to get paperwork done so I'm enjoying this week while I can, LOL.  Have a wonderful day..
